“It’s nice to meet you, Blaire. A beautiful name for a beautiful woman.” He picks up my hand and gently stretches my arm across the bar. Standing tall, he locks our fingers together.
A bubble forms around us. It’s as if we’re the only ones in the entire establishment. I don’t hear loud voices. I don’t hear the music; I only hear Jaden. He caresses the back of my hand with his other one. My heart races. My panties are wet.
Staring into his amazingly charming eyes, I ask, “How long have you worked here?”
“Since I graduated high school. How long have you and your friend been coming in?” He leans on the bar again, still holding my hand, and I get a nice whiff of him. Clean and spicy.
“Oh, we come in twice a month or so. Depends on what we want for dinner.” I lean in closer on the bar, narrowing the space between us. Fuck, he smells so good.
“I’ve not seen you here before tonight. I’d never forget seeing a stunningly beautiful woman like you.” His free hand moves gently up my bare arm to my shoulder, squeezing it.
Warmth travels through me, waves of pure ecstasy gush over me. My god, I need this gorgeous man inside me tonight. My blood rushes to my cheeks and I bow my head, breaking eye contact.
He glides his hand along my collarbone, up my neck, then his fingers touch my chin as he tilts my head back up, capturing me in his aura again. I draw in a deep breath, pushing my cleavage higher. His gaze drops to my chest again, and he licks his lips.
“You’re quite a charmer, Jaden. I like you.” I squeeze his hand.
“Maybe you can join me later for a drink.” I smile, slipping my tongue out, wetting my lips.
“I’d love to, Blaire.” He releases my hand and reaches toward my face. Caressing my cheek, he tucks a wayward strand of my hair behind my ear, then rests his warm, soft palm on the nape of my neck.
I’m about to fucking faint at his touches. How does this young man know how to touch me so perfectly? Our eyes meet again, we’re so close we could kiss, but someone bumps into my stool and nearly knocks me off it. I grab the bar to keep from falling. He quickly comes from behind the bar and stands beside me. Looking up at this towering, perfect young man, I breathe rapidly.
“Are you okay?” he asks, swallowing my shoulder with his hand.
“I am, thank you. You’re so sweet to be concerned.” I smile and pat his hand as it lingers on me.
He looks around as if to locate the person who bumped me so hard, then turns back to me.
“It’s really packed in here tonight. Some people just don’t give a fuck. Be careful, okay?” He steps even closer; his body heat encompasses me.
Placing my hand on his bicep, I say, “I will, promise.” I wink and bite my lip.
“Jaden, table ten needs cleared,” the man who served our drinks bellows.
Jaden waves, then looks down at me.
“I’ll see you soon,” he says, his voice rising as if asking me.
My head nods and I blink slowly.
He brushes my cheek, then turns and walks toward the double doors and disappears from my sight.
Rae grabs my arm, yanking me from the stool, and drags me to our table.
“Rae, slow down. What’s the rush?” I ask, steading myself.
At our table, she sits and opens the menu.
“What looks good?” she asks.
“Him,” I whisper too loud.
“Who?” She wiggles the menu, her eyes dart around the vast room.
“No one.” I let out a laugh.
“I was thinking out loud.” I catch a glimpse of my soon-to-be fuck partner walking into the hallway.
